Memory navi mode

While the map disc is inserted, you can store the data on the map disc into the memory of the navigation unit. If the map disc is removed from the navigation unit after the data is stored, navigation is performed using the data in the memory (memory navi mode). In the memory navi mode, you can play a music CD or DVD video on the navigation unit while navigation is taking place. The operation is automatically switched to the memory navi mode when the map disc is removed from the navigation unit.

Navigation in the memory navi mode

During the memory navi mode, navigation is performed only using the data read into the memory. Therefore, some functions are restricted compared with navigation using the map disc (DVD

If you want to use these functions, please insert the map disc again. In addition, you may need to insert the map disc and store new data in the memory during navigation operation, such as when the destination is far away. The memory navi mode uses the following map data to perform navigation.

Memory navi indicator

When new route guidance starts, the route data from the map disc is read into the memory of the navigation unit. The status of the memory navi mode is indicated by the following icons on the top left of the map screen.

but the distance for guidance is 20 km or less.

Where the distance for navigation guidance is unknown, the icon flashes red. In that case, the guidance may suddenly fail. It is therefore recommended to reinsert the map disc.

When disappears, memory navi mode is ready. You can now remove the map disc and use the memory navi mode function.
